More chances to win with the 2011 Red Cross Lottery

Over $1.3 million in prizes are featured in the 2011 Red Cross Lottery. Order your tickets before April 21 to be eligible for more than 7,000 great prizes. The Red Cross Lottery has been Ontario’s most affordable lottery for 16 years, and continues to support vital Red Cross programs and services in Ontario .

Last year, the ground literally shook for $250,000 Grand Prize winner, Marisa Macfarlane from Caledon Village. On June 23, the same day as a 5.0 earthquake rattled Ontario, she received a call on her cell phone to tell her the news of her first ever win. How many people can say they won $250,000 and experienced an earthquake on the same day?

For many Ontarians, charitable lotteries are a way to get the thrill of playing the lottery, and the satisfaction of knowing they are supporting vital programs in their community at the same time.

More than $20 million has been raised to help the Red Cross respond to disasters, train volunteers, deliver meals with the ‘Meals on Wheels’ program, provide rides to appointments for those who have no other way to get there, and to provide dignity, independence, and hope to many living alone.

Tax Free Winnings

I buy Red Cross Lottery tickets every year because they do good humanitarian work. They support a lot of things that are necessary. – Kathleen Draga, North York ON . 2010 $100,000 Winner.
